TIGER 21 Draws Global Leaders, CEOs and Former Heads of State to 2026 Global Exchange

Annual Flagship Gathering Convened Ultra-High-Net-Worth Members for Candid Conversations on Markets, AI, Longevity, and the Future of Leadership, featuring Keynote Speakers Boris Johnson, Jamie Dimon and Dr. Sanjay Gupta

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--TIGER 21, the premier peer membership community for ultra-high-net-worth wealth creators and leaders, has concluded its 2026 Global Exchange, held January 26–28 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The annual flagship event brought together over 1,000 attendees, including 700 Members, from across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. The three-day gathering explored the forces reshaping wealth, leadership and wellbeing — from artificial intelligence and geopolitics to longevity, family legacy and the future of markets.

The event capped a landmark year for TIGER 21. In 2025, the organization surpassed $200 billion in collective Member assets, expanded into more than 50 markets across nine countries, and launched a new Family Office leadership division for single-family office principals, reflecting the accelerating evolution of modern wealth stewardship through peer-to-peer engagement. That momentum carried over to Global Exchange, where Members engaged in candid, forward-looking conversations to shape the next chapter of leadership and legacy.

“TIGER 21 was built on the belief that perspective and insight stem from transparent dialogue among peers,” said Timothy F. Daniels, President and CEO of TIGER 21. “Global Exchange brings that to life — creating a trusted, intimate space where accomplished leaders challenge assumptions, deepen relationships and emerge better equipped to navigate uncertainty with a long-term perspective.”

The 2026 Global Exchange featured a dynamic agenda of leading thinkers and experts across AI, business, finance, geopolitics, health, wellness and human performance. Through keynote conversations, panels, workshops and intimate fireside chats, Members examined the forces shaping their lives, their decision-making and the world ahead.

From global leaders, CEO’s and former heads of state, notable speakers included:

  • Boris Johnson, former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, and Sanna Marin, former Prime Minister of Finland, on crisis leadership and governing in an era of instability
  • Jamie Dimon, Chairman and CEO of JPMorgan Chase, on leading through economic volatility and geopolitical disruption
  • Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN Chief Medical Correspondent, on longevity, brain health and human performance
  • Zack Kass, Global AI Advisor and Former Head of GTM at OpenAI, on AI's transformative potential for innovation, investment, and human progress, along with its risks and ethical implications
  • Brian Sullivan, CNBC Anchor and Senior National Correspondent, with a market outlook for 2026
  • Arden O’Connor and Diana Clark, Intent Clinical, on raising resilient families in a digital-first world

In addition to keynote programming, Members participated in intimate workshops and peer-driven sessions focused on real-world application, including:

  • Family Legacy Through Unconditional Love
  • Avoiding “Shirtsleeves to Shirtsleeves in Three Generations”
  • The State of Real Estate: What the Data Tells Us
  • Integrating the Next Generation: Succession Planning
  • Longevity Exchange: Conversations Across Every Stage of Wellness

These sessions reinforced TIGER 21’s commitment to lifelong learning, confidentiality and the strength of peer-to-peer insight. Themes emerging from the event included long-term resilience amid ongoing uncertainty, the accelerating influence of artificial intelligence on leadership and investment strategy and the growing importance of aligning wealth decisions with health, family and purpose.

Past Global Exchange speakers include Equity Group Investments’ Sam Zell, Actor, Author, and Entrepreneur Brooke Shields, Tennis Legend, Entrepreneur, and Philanthropist Venus Williams, co-founder of The Carlyle Group David Rubenstein, Olympic gold medalist Gabby Thomas, Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, and more.
